Do you want to learn to use Adobe Photoshop, but don't know where to start?
This fall, the Red Roots Center, in partnership with Can't Afford 'Em Buttons (http://www.caebuttons.com), is offering a workshop on all things Photoshop! Learn skills to snazzify your publicity materials, web graphics or digital artwork! This two-day class will include:
- Introduction to the Photoshop work area and tool sets
- Working with layers and masks
- Retouching images and fixing photographs
- Using color controls, levels and histograms
- Combining different file formats and managing multiple canvasses
- Text / font focus and layer styles
- Copying, merging and screen-grabbing
- Saving and exporting for web use
- DPI and print standards
The Red Roots Graphic Workshop will take place at the Can't Afford 'Em Buttons space in the South Bronx, September 20th-21st, from 1pm--5pm each day. Can't Afford 'Em is located just a 5 minute walk from the 138th st. stop on the 4/5 or 6, about 20 minutes from Union Square on an express train.
The first day of the Red Roots Graphic Workshop will focus on beginner-level skills, and the second will explore Photoshop at an intermediate level. The workshop costs $180--$220 sliding scale, with the option of paying $115 for just one day of instruction at either level. Please note in your email whether you intend to register for the full workshop or a one-day slot.
The workshop will be conducted by Eric Phillips-Horst, an NYC-based filmmaker / graphic designer and co-founder of the Meerkat Media Arts Collective (http://www.meerkatmedia.org). Eric has completed over 20 films to date and has been teaching Photoshop professionally since 2006.
